The blog that NOBODY reads... but everyone gets upset about.
Exposing the dark underside of the political world of Clark County, Washington... The least read and most talked about blog around.

All local issues having been solved and hankerin to get trouble going on in the state Senate, the democratian brings this to our attention.

The weekly attack against county government having been handled, the rag seems to be reduced to writing about what, for most down here, are irrelevancies.

Those of us in politics are in something of a quandary. The winner in the 31st District will have an "R" after their name, and I have personal knowledge of Sen. Roach (Having worked for her some 11 years ago... briefly...) and some political knowledge of Rep. Cathy Dahlquist.

None of either sets of knowledge is important at this juncture: here's what's important.

But that all comes under the broad heading of "democrat," and when a DEMOCRAT does it, why, that's different.

This, of course, has precisely zero to do with "news" as much as it does trashing Benton... again. He knows someone who's had an unfounded, politically motivated complaint filed against them, so, well, they're duty-bound to splash it down here.

Like it makes any real difference.

For me, what matters is that Dahlquist is in bed with a democrat. That means that somebody is being used here for something... and it's likely not for the better.

"Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom."

“Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
